Fifth Floor Common Room, Saturday night

While the student council races seemed to be starting up, Bruce had done his best to ignore them as he went about the day. It wasn't easy - there was a cupcake waiting for him this morning, then posters on the way to the gym and even some in the bathroom. But for the most part, he just spent the day training as much as he could while ignoring everything else going on.

But doing that all day led to some exhaustion, and even Bruce needed a break. The television seemed to be taunting him a little, though, as it showed episodes of Hoarders. Yes, yes, he had an area in a hidden cave where he was keeping some personal trophies from his time in Fandom, including things that had virtually no significance, even to him. That didn't mean he was a hoarder, A&E. It just meant that he was nostalgic.

He could stop any time he wanted. And he would, too! Just not now.

[OOC: Open CR, of course. I think I really wanted to post all three guys today.]

Bruce reached out to shake. "You seem pretty confident about that," he said. Of course, he only saw three candidates advertising so far.

"I'm sure once everyone sees what I can and want to do, they'll make the right choice."

She was less confident than she had been this morning. There'd also been one less candidate this morning.

"Well, you have a senior here," Bruce pointed out. "What do you want to do?"

"Well," she said, maybe a little excited to get to explain, "if the seniors are going to elect me, I want to be a voice for the seniors. I want to hear their problems and concerns and find a way to address them. I want to educate the students about social issues through events or panels, and maybe start a tutoring program."

And then she added, "And implement Senior Skip Day." Thank you, Sam.

"What kind of social issues?" Bruce asked. He didn't care about senior skip day one way or the other, but the future head of the Wayne Foundation was always interested in social issues.

"Things that are important to kids our age. Sex, the use of drugs and alcohol, and other things people might think need to be talked about," Annie replied. "Because if you don't talk about these things, it leads to nothing but problems."

"Makes sense," Bruce said. "You seem pretty passionate about this."

"I wouldn't put myself in the running if I wasn't," she told him. "Fandom's been really good to me so far. I want to give back."

"Glad to hear it," Bruce said. "As of right now, you've got my vote."

Annie's face lit up. "Really?"

She'd so needed this today!

"If there's one thing the Waynes know about, it's giving back," Bruce said. "I have to appreciate anyone else who feels the same way."

"But you're going to have to keep this kind of dedication up. There's still a long time until the election, and Quinn's not only motivated, but she's also a friend of mine. But I don't give my support without being serious."

[identity profile] annieadderall.livejournal.com 2011-09-04 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
"You have not yet begun to see my dedication," Annie said seriously. "I swear you won't regret voting for me. As long as I get on the Council."

"If it helps, I've only seen three campaigns so far. Even if anyone else does join the race, you've definitely gotten a good jump on it," Bruce said.

[identity profile] annieadderall.livejournal.com 2011-09-04 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, that's what I thought, and then Quinn started handing out cupcakes and now Wesley's got fliers. So far we're all safe, but if anyone else joins..." Then it would get interesting in a probably bad way.

"If anyone else joins, you stay on message and win," Bruce said. "And if you need any help, I'm sure you'll have supporters ready to pitch in."

[identity profile] annieadderall.livejournal.com 2011-09-04 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
"I think I do," she said, smiling. "Thanks, Bruce. I needed this today."

[identity profile] willbethenight.livejournal.com 2011-09-04 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm just glad I could help," Bruce said with the kind of tone that suggested that if she needed any more, he'd probably supply it.
